I was doing some spot touch up painting on my '59 Imperial today, and while waiting for areas to dry I decided to remove the trim ring around the Flightsweep tire. I removed the screw at the top which released the band, but was unable to get the band off. I started prying with a screw driver, but I got afraid I might bend it. Does anyone out there have previous experience with this? I need to get the ring off to repair a small rust spot that goes up under it towards the rear of the trunk. Thanks in advance, Bill '59 Crown
